Get from raw spreadsheet to visualized data in a single step. You no longer need to build charts by hand after importing a sheet.
What's new
When you import a spreadsheet, we can now generate a set of charts for you automatically. We look at your columns and data types, then create visualizations that fit what you brought in.
How to use it
  1. Start an import as you normally would.
  2. In the import dialog, check
    Generate AI charts
    .
  3. Finish the import. We build a set of charts for you and add them alongside your data.
That's it. No manual setup required.
Why you'll like it
  • Skip the blank canvas.
    You get a starting point the moment your data lands.
  • Spot trends sooner.
    The charts are ready as soon as the import finishes.
  • Keep what works, adjust the rest.
    Every generated chart is fully editable.
We've added two features aimed at making raw survey data easier to work with.
New transform: Split and merge columns
Split and merge columns
is now available under
Transform
on the
Data
tab. Use it to break a single column into several or combine multiple columns into one.
It's especially helpful for cleaning up raw survey data, where responses often arrive in a shape that doesn't quite match what you need.
New column type: Multi-choice
We've added a new column type,
Multi-choice
. It's built for survey questions that allow more than one answer, where several selections end up packed into a single column.
Set the column type to Multi-choice and those responses are handled correctly instead of being treated as one long string.
The fonts within a chart can now be customized!
Set chart fonts under Size & Style -> Fonts
Dashboards are now live!
Create multiple charts in one view, fed by multiple sheets. Add KPI widgets and datatables for a full view of your data!
Not sure which chart type fits your data? InstaCharts will now analyze your dataset and suggest the best chart types for it — along with a quick explanation of why each one works.
Look for the AI Charts button on the left sidebar.
You can now export any chart directly to a .pptx file, all ready to drop into your presentation. Each chart exports as a crisp, editable slide with your chart and styling intact.
Paid accounts can now add workspace viewers! Share an entire workspace instead of individual charts for faster and easier sharing.
Workspaces
We're introducing Workspaces: a better way to organize your work in InstaCharts. Create separate workspaces for different projects, teams, or clients, and give each one its own brand colors and assets so your charts always look on-brand.
Get started by creating your first workspace from the main dashboard.
Auto-Generated Titles & Subtitles
InstaCharts can now automatically generate titles and subtitles for your charts. Enable or disable this feature anytime under
Chart Text → Auto Titles
.
New feature alert! Users can now choose which rows are plotted in their chart.
From the Data tab, choose Plotting: All Rows, and select Selected Rows. Users will then be able to select the rows they'd like to chart, then press Save.
This feature is helpful when you have multiple kinds of data in one sheet; Create several charts, each can highlights a different set of rows!
